To assimilate into Southern culture, there’s two things you should know. First, when you see someone you know, you say,”How’s yo mama-nem?” Don’t enunciate, for Pete’s sake, and ask, “How is your Mother and the rest of your family?’ Oh, no. This whole sentence only has four syllables. That’s all you need. We understand it...

Here we are again. Another summer in the deep Deep South. It’s too hot for front porch sipping but we certainly enjoy our sweet ice tea sitting in air conditioning.

Ginger Peach Sweet Ice Tea amplifies Southern Sweet Tea with the addition of warm, spicy ginger and sweet summer peaches. Perfect for porch sippin’ material. The summer weather in the Deep South is great fodder for complaining. It’s hot and humid and sticky and steamy and miserable. And mosquitoes just about take us off. We constantly talk...

Southern Sweet Tea Sangria

Southern Sweet Tea is an iconic beverage. We call it the “table wine of the South”. Southerners drink it by the gallons all year-long. For a special occasion, this much-loved beverage can get dressed up. Canning jars are the preferred glassware for this beverage. We went fancy and served ours in our Redneck Stemware;...

An Unfortunate Sweet Potato Incident (Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes)

Jackie Garvin — Fri, 16 Sep 2011 22:38:21 +0000

I love sweet potatoes. I mean I really love sweet potatoes. That hasn’t always been the case. There was an unfortunate incident that occurred when I was a very young child that created a sweet potato aversion that lasted well into my adulthood. It saddens me to think of all the wonderful sweet...
